Abstract: <P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an electrode pad the irritativeness to the skin of which is low, which can be flexibly deformed and stuck alongside on a living body and which brings about no possibility that a fingertip or the like comes into contact with the outer peripheral end face of an electrode sheet or that a liquid penetrates thereinto.  <P>SOLUTION: The electrode pad A is stuck on the surface of the living body to make a high-frequency current flow therethrough in the use. The outer peripheral edge part of the electrode sheet 2 laid integrally on an insulating surface sheet 1 is covered overall with a frame-shaped insulating adhesive layer 4, and an adherent hydrogel is laid integrally on the electrode sheet 2 surrounded by the insulating adhesive layer 4. Therefore, the area of contact of the insulating adhesive layer having a strong adhesion with the living body is minimized by forming the layer in the shape of a frame, and the adherent hydrogel little irritative to the skin is brought into contact with the living body with a large area of contact. Thus, the adhesion to the living body is made sufficient, while the irritativeness to the skin is reduced, by the total adhesion of the insulating adhesive layer and the adherent hydrogel.  <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2004,JPO
